I've a sails.js app which makes api request in third party (for an example marketo api) to get data.

Is there any way that I can set a proxy in sails.js so that I can see all the request made by sail.js app into the fiddler.

By the way my os is ubuntu 14.04 and I'm using mono to run fiddler

It depends on how you are making your API requests.

If you are using request, you can set the proxy details this way:

let request = require('request');
// using default fiddler port
let proxiedRequest = request.defaults({'proxy': 'http://127.0.0.1:8888'});

proxiedRequest.get("http://api.example.com/foo", function (err, resp, body) {
  ...
})

If you are using the node http client, check "How can I use an http proxy with node.js http.Client?"

  • @gnus Actually I've no control on how the request has been made because I use third party library for multiple vendor. suppose for marketo I use https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-marketo-rest so it may vary from library to library. So, I need generic solution which will work regardless how those libraries interact with third party. – MD. Jahidul Islam Feb 10 '17 at 03:46
